So you want to start a blog about WoW but think everything you know about is already being done. Your class, your spec, your race, everything is covered.

Wrong-O, sassafras! 

There are tons of territories that nobody has explored yet. In fact, we have a list of stuff with which we’re still hopeful somebody will pick up and run.

Do you think you’ve got the skillz to start a blog? Well here’s some ideas that are free for the taking.

(Free doesn’t always mean Good, but it does mean Free.)

The Top Ten WoW Blogs For Which BRK Is Still Waiting

10. http://itankincloth.blogspot.com - No more 80-gold repairs bills but still wields a shield.

9. http://rollingwiththelowbies.blogspot.com - All twink 19s, all the time.

8. http://captainpugger.blogspot.com - How to do anything and everything without a guild.

7. http://theyoungandthequestless.blogspot.com - Quests and storylines? Pfft. Just the best places to kill stuff, baby.

6. http://ugliestcomboever.blogspot.com - An orc warlock shares his utter fashion shame.

5. http://babysgotback.blogspot.com - A female dwarf fury-warrior dares you to comment on her booty.

4. http://guildmasterpiecetheater.blogspot.com - Guild masters discuss how to handle Drama and the sweetest gkicks they’ve delivered.

3. http://mindonmymoney.blogspot.com - The who, what, when, why, and how of epic farming.

2. http://howdidyougetthere.blogspot.com- The top of Ironforge and much, much more.

    That first one made me laugh out loud as I have a friend new to this game who rolled a priest but has the personality of a warrior. Last night he wiped our group three times in Sunken Temple as he attempted to charge the mobs. Hes a slow learner.

    REFRESH REFRESH REFRESH!!!

    LMAO

    although I might just take you up on number one :)

  3. Fahr & Bacon on January 18th, 2008 12:37 pm

    LMAO!! Funny, and the refreshes are failing due to a blown up “CPU quota.”

    I think I’m refreshing more than on Woot-off day!

    Wheeeeee!!!

  4. Bellwether on January 18th, 2008 12:38 pm

    It won’t let me post a comment on this…

    CPU quota…

    QQ

    EDIT: HA! It worked. Anyway…

    This made me laugh. This whole contest thing is really dangerous when you’re trying to write a paper Oo

    Some of those ideas definitely look intriguing.

    I’m sure BuckToof would love to take you up on #1, I can already hear his little Ravager claws clicking away at the keyboard. But he has this drool issue and I’ve already replaced a few keyboards already. *sigh* Ah, well, maybe if we can get that in check he might be able to start writing a blog.

    I had to take the “My Hunter is a Noob” idea and run with it.
    I have a lvl 70 BE hunter, but have just started a new orc hunter named Kiteflyer (big level 6). I will be using him for this little experiment. I think the lucky pet shall be a pig, simply because it seems to be the best suited for a full leveling tank pet that can still do some dps. He will have wonderful stories for all to enjoy.

    Don’t fret, BRK gets a shout out for the idea. Respek.
    Much love!

    1,000,003….missed it by THAT much :(

  8. Ahoni on January 18th, 2008 1:50 pm

    Same here .. kept getting the CPU overload message. Oh well. Next million, I am so there!

  9. Track on January 18th, 2008 1:50 pm

    1,000,057. Just as well, I had to throw a job application or two in for some other stuff. :)

  10. Cryon on January 18th, 2008 2:10 pm

    Number 4 and 2 could be done by people from my guild, hehe.

  11. Poolstick on January 18th, 2008 2:10 pm

    Man I got 1,000,000, but I can’t email it to you since I’m at school. Will do at home, wait till 7 PM to check your mail!

  12. Ess on January 18th, 2008 2:18 pm

    I already have a blog in the spirit of #8 in progress:

    Year of the PuG

    Wish me luck! :)

  13. Gebeorgan on January 18th, 2008 2:19 pm

    Kind of done #9 except I’ve progressed to level 29 and blogged about that too. Not enough (well, any actually) pew pew posts though.

    A wow hunter blog from the perspective of the pet, he hasn’t posted in about 6 months tho :(

  15. Shutter on January 18th, 2008 2:38 pm

    I think Foton already does the guildmasterpiecetheater one at AFKGamer.com.

  16. Emira on January 18th, 2008 2:49 pm

    *delurks from the Skool Zone*

    I could’ve done the PuG-blogger thing, since I didn’t have a guild really until I was about level fifty-something. ^^; But at the time, I was more concerned with getting lost in strange places. So now I’ve got a (defunct) curious-tauren-who-runs-all-over-the-world blog, who happens to have a guild, and may occasionally be inspired to have posts by the main pet (what a good idea!), which could be good for a laugh or three. If I manage to get back in the game sometime this century. New angles for blogs, now that’s a keen thought…

  17. Anonymous on January 18th, 2008 2:53 pm

    Damn it, I would have loved to do #1, but somebody already got it. :( I may just create a blog and do it anyway!

  18. Captain Pugger on January 18th, 2008 2:57 pm

    Greetings from Portugal (you know, that little country in Europe that doesn’t actually belong to Spain)

    Well, you’ve inspired me and now Captain Pugger (http://captainpugger.blogspot.com) is born! Just registered the blog and now I’ll begin to add content to it. I’ll make a tauren druid on Defias Brotherhood.

    Wish me luck!

    Genius. Sheer genius.

  20. Dobby on January 18th, 2008 4:33 pm

    Meow, that number 1 idea seems pretty interesting, but now everybody will take it :’(

    “A hunter WoW-blog from the perspective of the pet.”

    There’s a blog out there called Ardent Defender. Here’s the tagline:
    “The Life and Times of a Dedicated Soloing Protection Paladin in World of Warcraft”. A Tanking Specialist.

    Although very recently he just joined a Kara guild, he leveled and geared using nothing other than PuGs, and he still PuGs heroics and regular 70 mans all the time. To me this is pretty impressive considering that anything past heroics (e.g. kara and 25 mans) are pretty difficult to PuG without some kind of guild involved in the process.

    The blog can be found at http://www.ardentdefender.blogspot.com/

    okay okay you twisted my arm!!!

    Email me if you are a GM that wants to participate!

    2. http://howdidyougetthere.blogspot.com- The top of Ironforge and much, much more.

    Rhêa, Neas and I could write that. We make a great united Horde/Alliance exploration team!

    Then again, I could probably write the cloth tank blog as well, though my shield is the power word kind :[

    *falling over laughing at Lassie’s comment*

    I wanna do the myhunterisanoob blog too!!!!! I don’t think I can top that one, though… hee!

    oooh, and go look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_EgyV5vpCH4 ^_^

    #1 is close enough to my blog (shameless self advertising here…).

    But the reference is to my lock… He tanks for my demons… :)

  28. Ozeb on January 19th, 2008 12:45 pm

    Add to that my blog taurenarmy.blogspot.com where I explore leveling a Tauren to 70 from each class available to them. :)

    “1. http://myhunterisanoob.blogspot.com- A hunter WoW-blog from the perspective of the pet.”

    I don’t care if someone beat me to it, I like this idea and I am stealing it. See http://pawsofpudanda.blogspot.com/

  30. GrumpyWowGuy on January 20th, 2008 12:49 am

    OK… shameless plug:

    http://grumpywowguy.wordpress.com/

    this IS a BRK inspired blog. Inspired a couple of weeks ago. Why, cuz BRK is muh new hero!

    It’s basically about whatever, in Wow.

  31. Galoheart on January 20th, 2008 9:05 am

    Would like to see someone do a really good job of # 8 Captainpugger because so few people ever do it. I somewhat did it. Would also like to see #3 on mindonmymoney of farming epics if someone can do those well you got me as a reader in my blogroll.

    Seem like we now have a captainpugger above for a start.

  32. Galoheart on January 20th, 2008 9:18 am

    Seem someone put a plug in for me above Ardentdefender.blogspot.com for leveling completely solo to 70 and pugging all the lvl 70 5man instances and Heroics all the way to door steps of Kara geared completely Uncrittable and Uncrushable as a Paladin Tank. So yeah thats already done. Did recently join a guild though since thats just too much to ask of me to completely PuG Kara ALL the time. I’ve paid my dues. So thanks to who ever mentioned my blog above. I don’t need the plug either since I’m listed on BRK site to the right :)

    Maybe some can be bold enough to be captain pugger of Pugging Kara or something.

    Well The Young and The Questless is being made as we speak, as a terminally confused look at leveling in wow
